I can only see it from a technical point of view: Peer2Peer software is a bandwidth hogger plus it requires much more expensive hardware to handle thousands of open connections. Just my 2 eurocents.

It has happened to me to choose a hotel in favor of another, just because the latter did not have free WiFi (especially on business trips, it's a necessity). It's pathetic to pay a lot of money for a room and then have to accept on being charged by the *hour* to use their always-on broadband connection. I totally agree.
